Subject: Make an Ice Candle

Date: Tue Jan 9 13:40:

Author: Tonya (tonyamb@bellsouth.net)



This project may take a few days! What you'll need: --5 gallon plastic bucket or pail --nonstick cooking spray --water --candle --some nice freezing weather (the colder the better!) Spray the inside of the bucket with the non-stick spray. This helps if you have problems with the ice sticking to the bucket when it's time to remove. Fill the bucket 3/4 of the way full with water & set outside to freeze. Leave overnight (depending on how cold it is!). You can use the freezer if you must. Remove the ice block from the bucket. On the bottom there should be an area that is still liquid. Drain out the liquid & slush and turn it over. Allow to freeze for at least 4 more hours. The pocket where the water was now makes a great place to insert a candle! Light & place outside when it's dark for a beautiful ice "crystal" candle luminary.
